Omnichannel Acquisition Corp.'s Business Combination with Kin Insurance, Inc.

Winston & Strawn LLP represented Omnichannel Acquisition Corp. (NYSE: OCA) (“Omnichannel”), a publicly traded special purpose acquisition company led by serial entrepreneur Matt Higgins and a deep bench of consumer operators, in its business combination with Kin Insurance, Inc. (“Kin”), an insurance technology company that makes home insurance easy and affordable. Upon closing of the transaction, the combined company will be named Kin Insurance, Inc. and is expected to be listed on the NYSE under the new ticker symbol “KI.” Kin expects to use their strengthened balance sheet to further scale their platform to new geographies, accelerating the growth of their premiums and profitability. Kin now has an opportunity to reinvent and lead the massive homeowners insurance marketplace. The Omni team is already hard at work helping elevate Kin’s brand presence, expanding Kin’s acquisition channels, and layering in the most cutting-edge acquisition tactics. The business combination reflects an estimated implied pro forma enterprise value at closing of US$1.03B, assuming no redemptions by Omnichannel’s public stockholders. The transaction is further supported by an US$80M PIPE at US$10 per share of Class A common stock of Omnichannel led by HSCM Bermuda and Senator Investment Group. The transaction is expected to provide Kin with approximately US$242M of cash at closing. Kin’s existing stockholders will be rolling 100% of their equity into the combined company and are expected to own approximately 75% of the combined company immediately following the closing of the business combination, assuming no redemptions by Omnichannel’s public stockholders. PIPE investors are expected to own approximately 6% of the combined company, and Omnichannel stockholders are expected to own approximately 16%....Read more

Debanking Developments: U.S. Senator Introduces Debanking Bill

Winston’s Financial Services Industry Group is closely monitoring debanking regulations and advising global financial institutions on customer onboarding and due diligence.

In this alert, Jack Knight, Carl Fornaris, Patrick Doerr, and Arman Aboutorabi examine Senator Thom Tillis’s (R-NC) proposed Ensuring Fair Access to Banking Act. Although the bill is nominally designed to “limit the circumstances under which a Federal financial regulator may require a financial institution to terminate a specific account,” it in fact proposes much more.

Senator Thom Tillis’s discussion draft of the Ensuring Fair Access to Banking Act would create a single federal “fair access” standard prohibiting “debanking” except in defined circumstances, grant enforcement authority to federal and state regulators, and preempt state fair-access laws. These changes could impact account-opening, maintenance, and exit decisions and increase litigation exposure. Read the full alert for key implications, open questions, and practical steps institutions can take now.

What Is the Equal Rights Amendment?
